Curriculum: Luke in the Land

In our Bibles, we have four Gospels describing Jesus’s time on earth: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The land of Israel—the place Jesus walked and taught during His earthly ministry—is often referred to as the “fifth Gospel.”

Follow Kristi McLelland through Israel as we study snapshots from the Gospel of Luke to see where the stories of the Bible took place. Over 7 sessions, challenge the way you read the accounts of Jesus through teaching videos that take you to locations in Israel like Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Gethsemane, Jerusalem, and the road to Emmaus. Along the way, you'll see how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everybody.

Beginning June 22

Curriculum: My New Life

All new Christians are excited to start their journey of faith. Unfortunately, for many, there is little foundation from which to build. Many new believers have no experience in reading the Bible or even knowing what it’s about. Countless others have no experience in the church or even an understanding of why the church is important. With so many unknowns, the new Christian can become easily discouraged by a lack of understanding of who a Christ-follower is.

For the believer to grow, it’s necessary to have an understanding of the gospel, God’s character, prayer, and so much more. Many resources for new Christians exist, but they can be overwhelming. They attempt to cover too much information and they use words that people new to the faith have most likely never even heard. So what’s a better way to support, encourage, and teach the new Christian what this new life in Christ looks like?

In My New Life, the new Christian will be given deep truths in short and simple-to-understand chapters of daily readings for weekly study. Whether completed individually or with a mentor, this study will help a new believer grow in knowledge of God’s Word. It will provide a foundation on which daily trust in Jesus will grow for the rest of their lives.

Session Topics:

1. My New Life in Christ
2. Understanding the Gospel
3. Knowing God
4. Following Jesus
5. Connecting to God’s Family

Summer 2025 Studies:
The Red Sea Rules by Robert Morgan (4 sessions)
Ten Words to Live By by Jen Wilkin (5 sessions)
A Holy Pursuit by Dianne Jago (5 sessions)

The Red Sea Rules
Using the Israelites’ story in Exodus 14 as an example, Robert Morgan offers ten sound strategies for moving from fear to faith.

Ten Words to Live By
Get a fresh biblical look at the Ten Commandments, showing how they come to bear on our lives today as we seek to love God and others, to live in joyful freedom, and to long for that future day when God will be rightly worshiped for eternity.

A Holy Pursuit
The world says, “Chase your dreams and follow your heart, no matter the cost.” Some well-meaning Christians advise the opposite, “Lay down all of your dreams and passions, avoiding all self-interest.” Find out what the Bible really says about dreams, goals, and passions.
